LONDON JOURNALS. (FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.) [Morning Chronicle Letters front Jamaica, of the 5i h September, announce the arrival there of the La Pique- frigate, with part of the specie detained at the Havannah from the wreck of hia Majesty's late sloop Tay. The Spanish Governor had directed the authori ties at Havannah to deliver up to the claimants the sum of 453,272 dollars, as well as the gold and jewels, at the same time so unlawfully seized; but, in defiance of that order, the Havannah Go vernor has only returned part, retaining 74,542 dollars for duties and other charges. In conse quence of this, the proprietors of the cargo ori ginally seized, only now receive a dividend of about 66 per cent. Sir HOME PoenAm was about making a strong remonstrance respecting this dis graceful transaction, and it was expected he would present an urgent demand for the restoration 01 the balance ; but little hopes were entertained at Jamaica of his attempt being attended with suc cess. The owners will consequently have to apply to Madrid for a fresh order. The whole value of the property claimed amounts to more than half at million of dollars. [Morning Herald.] THE QUEEN. _" Eight o'Clnek, Oct. 21 . " Her MAJESTY had another very restless night, and both Sir Henry Halford and Sir Francis Mil t-Ilan were in constant attendance till long past midnight ; when they retired for a few hours.— On re-visiting the Royal Chamber this morning, they found her Majesty still seriously indisposed, and they delayed issuing the Bulletin beyond the usual time. We regret to say, that her Majesty remained in the same unfavourable state tip to seven o'clock this evening. Not the slightest amendment had taken place, and the Royal Pa tient was labouring under the most distressing debility.—The Prince Regent arrived in the even ing, and having given audience to the Physicians, his Royal Highness remained to dinner with the Princesses. His Royal Highness's horses are or dered to be ready for his return to town at nitre o'clock. The Dukes of York and Sussex also visited the Palace, in the course of the day ; and their Royal Highnesses both remained a consider- Able tittle with their illustrious Sisters. Sir F. Milman and Sir H. Halford both remain in at tendance for the ❑ight." [Morning Post.] It has been asset tell that there was a differ ence of opinion between the Commander-in- Chief and his Majesty's Ministers respecting the reduction to be made in the army. This is wholly unfounded. On the contrary, Mi nisters and the Commander-in-Chief perfect ly agree in the policy, expediency, and neces sity of the scale of peace establishment fixed upon for the army, which amounts to 81,000 men.— 'hen the great extent of our colonies is consi deted, the establishment is fixed upon at the lowest possible scale, and every practical regard has been evinced to the interest of the public in the consideraimn given to this subject, both by the Ministers and his Royal Highness —We have also to contradict the report of the contemplated resignation of the Dole of York, and the ap pointment of the Duke of Wellington in his room. The terirement of his Itoyal Highness has riever been conteMplated either by his Majesty's Ciu vernment or himself. [The Timesl NIADRID, SLPTEMIILK c 2 1 . Leery thing goes on in the way I mentioned to my Imam". letters. An imprisonment lately occurred which deserves to be reported. Don T. Gallardo, one of the inhabitants of Campa nario, has just been taken into custody, for the third time. The great crime of the prisoner is his being the brother of M. Canard°, the libra rian of - the Cortes. That Gentleman had the good fortune to escape from Madrid, when the king entered, to the mortification of those who wished to add him to the numerous vic tims of that period. in revenge for their Oisappointment, the persecutors seized M. Gal lant°, junior, and threw him into a duogeoo, where he was treated with great severity. The cruelty of this transaction was most wanton, for M. Galindo had been guilty of no offence what ever ; on the contrary, he and his brother had given numerous proofs of their loyalty and pa triotism. Don T. Gallardo was often in great danger, after the battle of 'Medellin, on account of the resistance he made to the invaders. His sa crifices in the cause of his country, and his perso nal qualifications, rendered him so popular, that he was elected Secretary to the Common Coun cil of Campanario, the duties of which office he was discharging with general approbation when the King arrived in Spain. On the intelligence of that event reaching Campanario, he gave it as his opinion in the Common Council, that it ought to be celebrated, not merely with the ordinary maths of joy, but by some really patriotic act. On his motion a subscription (to which he was a ' principal contritintot) was opened for equipping the regiment of Truxillo. Being appointed to carry the amount of the subscription to the regiment, he executed that commission ; but had scarcely returned to Campanario, when lie was thrown into pistil), where he remained for 21 months. Ilaving obtained his liberty, he went on business to the neighbourhood of Badajos, where he was again imprisoned by order of the Marquis del Palacio, Captain-General of Estremadura. The pretext of this arrest was, that having approached the frontiers of the kingdom, it was evidently his intention to escape and join his brother in Eng land ; as if he could wish to abandon his family, to share the misfortunes of a lotion' exile, who is supported by the compassion of another ! His present imprisonment is still more cruel. it is an act which astonishes every one who knows him for such has been his circumspection (for the sake of his family), that he has neither written to, nor received a single line from his brother, for these four years. A well-informed person has, however, fissured me, that this measure has been adopted ill consequence of his brother having published in I HER MAJESTY.—The following Bulletin was issued this morning : 4 ' KEW PALACE, OCT. 22. " There is no alteration in Her MAJESTY'S Symptoms since yesterday. The QUEEN has had an indifferent night. (Signed) " F. MILMAN. " 11. MILFORD." The state of HER MAJESTY was deemed so cri tical this morning, that his Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT, accompanied by Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD, left town for Kew at an early hour. We received this morning the Paris Papers of Monday last. The following are extracts : " PARIS, OCT. 19.—The King yesterday re ceived the Duchess Dowager of Orleans, the Ministers, Marshals, Cardinals, &c.

New York Papers arrive:l this morning, one (liiy later " LATE AND INTERESTING INTELLIGENCE FROM THE SPANISH MAIN. NORFOLK, SEPT. 15.—Captain Kerr, of the British schooner Sector, has politely favoured us kith a proof sheet slip from the Office of The Trinidad Courant, dated the 29th August, which contains the following highly interesting extract. Captain K. has also handed us a file of the Courant to the 2Gth of August " TRINIDAD, AUG. 29.—0 n Friday the 21st inst. anchored in this port, about ten miles to the Southward, Admiral Brion, from Guayana, with the squadron under his command :—Victoria, Captain Cowie, flag-ship ; Columbia, Captain Hill ; Spartana, Cipt. Ilavelo ; Favourite, Capt. Bernard ; and having had a sort of neutral com munication with Admiral Harvey, proceeded early next morning for his destination. " A squadrilla of what they term their subtle force, composed of gun-boats and flecheras, with 700 men of debarkment on board, commanded by Commodore Diaz, and General Bermudez, which had descended the river with the Admiral, and debouched by the Cano de Macareo, and ren dezvoused at Point Icacos, were ordered to join to the Westward. " The result of this expedition was received here yesterday by a canoe, and has been, that Guiria was attacked at ten o'clock on Monday night, the 24th instant, aad carried by assault, with very little loss to the assailants, but a very considerable one to the Spaniards, who fought with bravery until the Favourite, having got close in to the redoubt, and opened her fire from a 24-pounder on a pivot, loaded with grape, they immediately fled into the interior with the greatest precipitation, leaving behind their arms, ammunition, and every thing, even to their segars. The force afloat has also been all taken : it consists of nine gun-boats, and some vessels with private property, chiefly cocoa, of which, it seems, there is a large quantity in the town, and on the coast. The blockade being now raised, we hope to see very soon the happy effects of a free navigation, by the arrival of lots of cattle and mks from Guayana and Civarapiche. " Of the casualties in this affair, we have not seen any detail ; but the report states generally that they were very trifling on the part of the assailants, but on that of the assailed enormous, which, however, we may be permitted to doubt. " P. S. Since the foregoing was prepared for the Press, we have received a circumstantial ac count of the military and naval transactions which led to the surrender of Guiria, by his Majesty's ship Scamander, Capt. Elliott, who was sent there on professional duty to the Admiral, and had an opportunity of observing all that passed. The land forces under General Bermudez, which amounted only to 70 boys, instead of 700 men ; but these young Republican heroes proved them selves fully competent to perform the work. " We learn verbally from Captain Kerr, that the intelligence received by the Scamander, rela tive to the above affair, was in s,bstance as follows :—That frigate had been dispatched by the British Admiral to demand from the Spa nish Commandant at Guiria, the release of two English vessels improperly detained by him. On her arrival in the Boy, Admiral Brion was making his dispositions for attacking the place. The Spanish Commandant refused to give up the two English vessels, and the Scamander stood out and lay off the harbour to recon noitre the engagement, which soon commenced. Previously, however, Admiral Brion sent word to the Captain of the Scatnauder to give himself no concern about the vessels, as he would engage to deliver them to him in the course of the day,which be did. During the action, the Favourite (men tioned in the preceding account) got becalmed in a situation which left her at the complete disposal of the enemy, who boarded her, and massa cred every one of the crew. Soon after this horrid act of barbarity, a breeze sprung up, and the Admiral, in the Victoria, (not the Favourite as stated above) was enabled to take a favourable position, when he opened a tremendous fire on the Spanish flotilla and batteries. In a little time the fire of the Spaniards was completely silenced. Those at the batteries flew iu all directions, while those the gun-boats were indisci intioately Putt. death by the avenging sword Of the Patriots' " Captain K. states, that the universal ieirre sion at Trinidad was, that the Patriots load soon be in undisturbed possession of everY of territory in Venezuela. Ile also menti °9ss fact, by no means unimportant, that in an cs l . change of communications between the Britisi , Admiral and Admiral Brion, the former a ddressel ; the latter with his official title of " Commander-in-Chief of the Naval Forces O f th e Independent Government of Venezuela," th us re• cognizing the Independence of the power under which he acted.
